You Butter Believe It- Elgin is a Dairy Town! at Lords Park Zoo
July 20 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm CDT
Did you know Elgin was once famous for its milk and butter? Six thousand cows can’t be wrong! Join us to learn why Elgin was once the Butter Capital of the Midwest and how a man from Texas got a library named after him in Elgin. Join us at the Tefft Farm inside the Lords Park Zoo and we’ll churn butter and see what kind of farmer you’d make. Best for ages 3-8.
